Well done back - fantastic achievement

Welcome Across

Acrosstheuniverse123 - welcome

Twinkle - how about a chicken burger ?

Holy mackerel backin that's an amazing start, well done! Well done to you too Softy and Hair - Hairspray I feel like we should have a Thread Party when you hit the 9s, you've been flirting with them for so long.

Welcome Across! I must say I did a double take when I saw you weighed 112 stone and wanted to lose 3 of them...

Soft - well done

soft Well done!

7lbs in a week!! That's amazing back...well done 👏🏼

KOKO I wonder if you need to babystep towards the 1200 mark? It’s so easy to self sabotage when you set yourself a high standard that I wonder if you are just thinking ‘oh sod it’ and then crashing into junk.

Maybe today just say, I will eat 3 meals and no extras, but not worry too much about the meals being ‘diety’, just normal meals of what you want but no evening crisp and fizz frenzy. Take each day one at a time.

My personal triumph for the day was that I had a very difficult emotional situation to deal with this morning, which could easily have had the ‘oh sod it’ effect, but I didn’t buy comfort food to soothe my woes.

Equally I am now frozen to the spot and not doing anything actively useful/helpful but I need to take off my coat and get yoga pants on. It will calm me if I stretch and move.

I totally agree with Kiki, koko (you two should have a double act )

What is it that's going through your head when you start on the crisps and wine? It sometimes sounds to me like you try so hard to be "good" that you end up depriving yourself and losing self-control. Or is that not it at all? Can you have three filling meals, feel totally sated, but then something provokes you back into the kitchen? Is it just a bad habit? (I don't say that lightly, bad habits are SO hard to break!)

Wow back, well done!

I can't boast of that kind of loss but I am more than 3lbs down since 1st Nov. Also lost an inch on my waist and half an inch off my comedy tits.

I'm really sorry, I had a burger . Dust for dinner!

Never mind Twinkle if you have a light dinner and no snacks for the rest of the day it might not be too much of an issue.

I had a Quorn chicken, fig and pear salad 312 cals. MILs for tea, probably stuffed peppers, but that is unconfirmed!

Hairspray you are doing amazing!!!

Why are you aiming for 1200 Calories KOKO.

Are you exercising - how active is your life.

I have tried to stick to 1200 calories - it made me miserable - I failed and then I ate because I failed. I said to my PT that I find 1200 calories really hard to stick to, his reaction was well who told you that figure was what you should be eating! No one had it just seems to be the in figure to aim for. I'm not saying its a bad thing but we are all different. I know BOOP sticks to it and does great, we are similar weights from past threads and I aim for 1400 calories a day. What works for one doesn't work for us all.

1400 calories isn't much more but I seem to be able to manage around here and not feel guilty for going over.

Have you calculated how many calories a day you actually need to eat. Apparently if I was to sleep all day and do nothing my body needs 1383 calories to maintain weight.

Crikey sorry that long winded and sounds bossy but it isn't meant to be just sharing my experiences.

I flirted with the 9s for months too

WE can do this Niki Come on!

Oh I made it to 9.10 but it took MONTHS.

Its too close to my liking to 10st.

Back on it tomorrow for me, honest!

The Kiki and Koko Shoooowwwww

Another small loss which takes me to 2.5lbs lost this month so far. I’m enjoying this downward trend finally.
